WAVERLEY:<\/strong> It was easy to see how much much people missed the N.S. Art & Craft sale, sidelined in 2020 due to COVID-19, with the crowd that attended the two-day event held Nov. 5-6 at the Waverley Legion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Organizers said the feedback they received from attendees who stopped in to see their talented makers and make purchases was great. They appreciated the feedback. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The zest for the event was shown as the parking lot was hardly empty for a couple minutes before it was full again at the Legion, located along Rocky Lake Drive, on either day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was a 50\/50 raffle with the proceeds going to the Fall River & Area Lions Club; plus a door prize to be won. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 50\/50 winner was Diana MacDonald who won $1,100 of the $2,200 total for the 50\/50. The Lions will get the remainder. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event couldn’t have happened with out all the great artisans that registered and participated; the volunteers from the Waverley Legion, plus a few others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sponsors that assisted included:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

M. Smith Contracting Limited<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fall River Sobeys<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Councillor Cathy Deagle Gammon<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MP Darrell Samson<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course any event such as this doesn’t happen without volunteers. The organizers wished to thank: Ann D, Marla, Lawrence, Moira, Kara, Nadia, Beth, Trish, Ann M, Tanya, Janet, and Keith. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Without all of you this could not have taken place. You’re all amazing,” said organizers in a post on their Facebook page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They’re already excited about 2022’s edition of the annual event. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
